A man is in custody for attempted armed robbery at a Mt. Pleasant store.

It happened on Thursday, Sept. 29 about 2:28 p.m. at the Target store on East Blue Grass Road in Union Township.

Investigators said when a clerk at the Starbucks counter inside the Target asked 36-year-old Nathan Christopher Clark from Grand Rapids what he wanted to order, he replied saying he "wanted all the money in the register." Clark then laughed.

Clark paid for a cup of coffee and before leaving the counter told the clerk he had a gun, but it was “not a very big one.”

He then walked away into the store. Staff began monitoring his movements as they called 911.

When police arrived, several officers formed a perimeter outside the building to prevent more customers from entering the store. Police made contact with Clark without incident.

He was interviewed and taken into custody for attempted armed robbery.
